Chapter 10 Turning an Enemy into a Friend
The little finger of a jade hand moved a little on the mud, and Shui Hanyan slowly opened his eyes, and the white light in front of him was dazzling.
She slowly sat up and saw a big river in front of her. The river water was rippling, and the sun shone on the river surface, rippling stars. Opposite the river bank was a huge cliff, and there were many green pine trees growing among the steep stone walls of the cliff.
She stood up again and looked around. Not far away, a man in a blue shirt fell into the mud. Shui Hanyan tiptoed to approach the man. The man's hair was scattered and covered his forehead, his face was covered with mud, and a big hole in his clothes on his shoulders revealed a very deep wound. The wound was swollen by the river, and his flesh had already rolled up, and light yellow pus flowed out.
The breeze blew, and a foul smell was sent to Shui Hanyan's nose. She couldn't help but frown. Seeing that the man's chest was also a wound, the wound had already ulcerated. Shui Hanyan bent down to explore the man's breath, and only felt that his breath was very weak.
Then she pulled off the man's sword, stood up, and said, "Evil thief, you have killed so many sisters in our Xuannv Palace. Today I will pay you back!" Shui Hanyan held the hard handle with both hands, but her jade hands kept trembling. She had never killed anyone in her life, but she was still afraid.
At this time, Xiao Yunfan moaned. Shui Hanyan was startled and took a few steps back. Seeing that Xiao Yunfan had not sat up, she thought to herself: Master often said that how can we be a well-known and upright person take advantage of others, but this evil thief killed so many people. What's the point of killing him? No, he is seriously injured and unconscious. Even if I kill him, he will not feel anything. It can't be so cheap. By the way, I haven't found Jiu Yao Linglong's whereabouts yet, and killing him is indeed too reckless.
So she inserted the sword in her hand into the mud on the side and looked at Xiao Yunfan. She leaned over to explore Xiao Yunfan's breath, as faint as before.
Shui Hanyan said to himself: I wanted to die with this stinky thief, but God allowed us to survive. I will go to look for my master and sisters now. But how should I find them? By the way, my sister gave each of us a sound arrow. As long as the sound arrow is fired, my master and the others may see it.
She took out the arrow from her arms, but she pulled the fuse away but couldn't fire it. She threw the arrow into the river, and with a thud, a splash of water splashed. Shui Han Ci's mouth flattened, and she lowered her hands and said, "Shui Han Ci's smoke, you are so stupid. If you soaked in the water, you must have been damp. If you can't find your master and the others, what should I do? Then I thought again: No, I have to save this stinky thief, otherwise he will die, and the whereabouts of this treasure will be gone. If you can't find the treasure, I'm afraid that Master and her elder brother will be punished by the palace master!
Shui Hanyan reached out and touched Xiao Yunfan's forehead. He felt it was as hot as charcoal, and he felt compassionate. He said to himself: Master, if a person is injured by a sword and has a fever, his condition will be extremely bad. This stinky thief cannot die. By the way, Bingqing San from this sect is specialized in treating sword trauma, and the medicine is very effective. When Sister Duomengjiang went out, he told me to take it with me.
As she said that, she took out a small green magnetic bottle from her arms. She suddenly said happily: Fortunately, the seal of the magnetic bottle was wrapped in wax, otherwise she would have to be soaked in water. She looked at the deep wound on Xiao Yunfan's body and thought about how to deal with the wound.
When she turned around, she saw a cave behind her. Weeds were growing on both sides of the cave, and the stone walls outside the cave were covered with green vines and moss. She slowly walked to the cave and looked inside. With a croaking sound, a bat rushed past her head. She screamed and covered her eyes. Her heart was pounding. It took a long time before she dared to open her eyes.
The cave is also spacious. When you walk in, you can see a huge rock. The surface of the rock is smooth and flat, just right as a bed. Shui Hanyan ran out of the cave. He thought of picking up Xiao Yunfan, but he felt embarrassed and said in his heart: The first rule of this sect is to not get close to strange men. I want to hold him up, so I will naturally get close to him. What should I do?
At this time, Xiao Yunfan snorted again, and Shui Hanyan sighed and said, "But Master often teaches us that chivalrous people should help the poor and save the poor. Although this person is abominable, his life is in danger. If he doesn't save him, wouldn't it be against the word chivalrous? Besides, the master said that chivalrous is the foundation for the establishment of his children in the world. If the master wants to blame him in the future, then he will be scolded." After persuading herself, she spent a lot of effort to move Xiao Yunfan to the stone bed. She turned around and took some clear water from outside the cave and put it in one.
Inside the exquisite tin box.
The light in the cave was dim, and it was extremely inconvenient to clean Xiao Yunfan's wounds. She looked around and found some dry grass and dead branches as a medium. But the fire she carried with her was already damp. After thinking about it, she suddenly remembered a night pearl given to her by Sister Lu.
Fortunately, the bead was carried on her body and hidden in her close-fitting pocket. She took out a small treasure bag, unbuttoned the rope at the seal, and shook it gently, and a longan-sized bead rolled down on her snow-white palm. The beads were plump and full, emitting a soft brilliance. A faint layer shone on her red cheeks, adding to the beauty.
She brought the pearl around her neck, then gently unscrewed the small bottle cap of Bingqing, and a small silver spoon was attached to the small cover. She used the spoon to pick out a little white powder from the bottle, poured it into the tin box, and stirred it evenly with a jade hairpin. Then she used two small wooden strips to hold the cotton balls pulled out of her clothes, dipped in the blended potion, and carefully scrubbed the mud and pus in the wound. Xiao Yunfan was still shrunk in a daze.
After cleaning the wound with Shui Hanyanyan, he picked up some powder with a small silver spoon and sprinkled it on the wound. After finishing her work, she was already tired and sweating profusely. She reached out and touched Xiao Yunfan's forehead. The high fever still had not subsided, and she couldn't help but worry. When she was a child, she was sick, and her uncle would apply cold towels on her forehead to remove heat.
She folded a washed handkerchief in half and gently placed it on Xiao Yunfan's forehead. Every once in a while, she wet the handkerchief and then pasted it. After repeated this, it took a long time to prevent his head from being so hot.
Three days later, at night, Xiao Yunfan slowly opened his eyes, feeling his head was drowsy and his mouth was dry. He sat up hard, and inadvertently glanced at the veil wrapped around his shoulders. He saw a girl lying on the side face and fell asleep by the stone bed. He thought to himself: This girl should be truly kind. If she hadn't taken care of her, I, Xiao Yunfan, would have died. My heart was full of gratitude.
He jumped carefully from the stone bed, then gently picked up Shui Hanyan and placed it on the stone bed. On the head of the bed were a few bright red fruits, which seemed to be prepared for him. Xiao Yunfan took one casually and walked gently outside the cave.
The night wind was cold, and there was only the sound of running water in my ears. Xiao Yunfan looked up at the stars in the sky, then took a bite of the fruit, and a fragrance came to his nose. After a while, he filled the fruit into his belly. He threw the core and reached out to touch the fire slicing in his arms.
He fought for a long time, but the fire broke out without a single ray of light. He frowned and said to himself, "His grandma must be soaked in the river. No, I have to find a way to ignite the fire." He turned around and walked into the cave and took his long sword.
I found some dry branches around, and then used my long sword and black sheath to scrub sparks from each other. The sparks fell on the hay. He blew slowly. Soon, the hay began to smoke and gradually there were flames. He picked up some small dead branches to fill the hay. After a while, a ball of fire broke out on the ground. Xiao Yunfan used his long sword to cut off a piece of tree trunk and made a torch to illuminate it. He patrolled around and seemed to have no prey. He had to go to a tree at the entrance of the cave and pick a few fruits to satisfy his hunger.
He touched his chin and thought to himself: This girl could kill me, but why did she save me again? Could it be that she killed me for a while and felt guilty, so she saved me again. As he thought about it, he shook his head, and his heart was worried: How could the people from Xuannv Palace come to Bashan? I visited Xuannv Palace that day and night, and after I stole the thing, I did not fight with anyone. They kept saying that they wanted to seek revenge on me, what was going on? Could it be that someone attacked the people from Xuannv Palace after I left and blamed me again.
It's really a bad year, and his luck is extremely bad. Who is unable to get through with me, Xiao Yunfan? I have to live my life. This matter is mostly related to Xu Shou, the bastard. Xu Shou used the boxing technique of Henan Yanjia, and he can still find out his background. If you are afraid, this person is not Xu Shou.
The most important thing about the Bashan Sect is to find the old monster Mo Lizi first. As long as he is willing to build two more keys, I can open the Xuan Ji iron box. With this fish, my life will be saved. No matter how stupid Chu Zhongliu and others are, they will not sacrifice his grandson's life. But now I am trapped here, it is indeed not a solution.
While he was thinking, he heard footsteps coming from behind. When he turned around, he saw Shui Hanyan walking towards him with his hands behind his back, sternly
The face said, "Strange thief, be honest, did you touch me when I was sleeping just now?" Xiao Yunfan touched his nose and said, "There are some moves, but there are no moves!" Shui Hanyan said bulgingly, "You... you smelly thief, I see that I have killed you!" As he said that, he kicked Xiao Yunfan.
Xiao Yunfan sideways and smiles, "Hey! What's your name, little girl?" Shui Hanyan didn't answer and kicked her again. Xiao Yunfan reached out and grabbed her boots and said, "Hey! If you don't answer me, you'll just say someone like you just like you." Shui Hanyan said, "You... you stinky! Let me go!"
Xiao Yunfan reached out and pushed the boots aside, then pinched his nose and said, "Good guy, I'm a stinky thief, you can't smell so much! The smell of these boots, tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk!" Shui Hanyan's face flushed and said, "Hmph, even if my boots smell smelly, it's a hundred times more fragrant than this stinky thief."
Xiao Yunfan shook his head and said, "Yes, yes, yes, you are right. As the saying goes, a good man doesn't fight with a woman. Mr. Xiao has a lot of knowledge that doesn't go with you, a little girl." Shui Hanyan Yannu said, "Bah! A good woman doesn't fight with a man. But you don't count, I'm going to kill you today..."
Xiao Yunfan made a joke, but he didn't expect the girl to take it seriously. He avoided a few moves, jumped back, waved his hand and said, "I won't beat you anymore, I won't beat you anymore. The girl is a life-saving grace for me. How can someone Xiao do beastly behavior? I just said something wrong, please forgive me!"
Shui Hanyan snorted coldly and said, "I saved you because I was the one who saved me for the whereabouts of this treasure. You don't have to be grateful to me. There is only hatred between you and me!" Xiao Yunfan sighed and said, "To be honest, Xiao Yunfan did take something from your sect, but what I took must not be the one that the girl said."
Shui Hanyan pointed at Xiao Yunfan, his eyes filled with hatred and said, "You took the treasure first, burned Mulan Pavilion behind, and harmed many of my sisters. How do you count this hatred?" Xiao Yunfan's face changed slightly, and he said, "I did not kill anyone, nor did I set fire to the noble sect. This matter must have been done by others." Shui Hanyan saw that Xiao Yunfan's expression was not as fake, and he was skeptical in his heart, and asked, "What did you steal from this palace?"
Xiao Yunfan said, "It's the remains of a senior in the sect!" Shui Hanyan said, "It's not the most treasure of the sect, Jiu Yao Linglong?" Xiao Yunfan shook his head and said, "No. On that day, Xiao visited Xuannv Palace at night and took only the remains of this senior and left in a hurry. As for the girl's burning Mulan Pavilion, Xiao didn't know anything about harming innocent people." Shui Hanyan said angrily, "Even if it's the remains of the senior in this sect, you shouldn't steal them privately."
Xiao Yunfan sat down and added a dead branch to the flame and said, "The bone stealing was not something that Xiao was bold and reckless, but that he had no choice but to have any difficulties." Shui Hanyan saw Xiao Yunfan's expression in a slight look and asked, "Is this senior in this sect having some connection with you?" Xiao Yunfan said, "This matter is a long story. My master Xie Tianya and the senior of the noble sect were originally a pair of beautiful men made of heaven and earth. The two of them had made an appointment to retire to Linquan. It was a pity that fate made people feel bad. My master was seriously injured and could not make an appointment. Since then, this senior thought that my master was indifferent.
The family master originally wanted to go to Xuannv Palace to explain to this senior, but it was another misunderstanding. Several masters from the noble school attacked, and the master was outnumbered and had to go down the mountain. At this point, this grudge could not be resolved. Before the family master passed away, he told me to find a way to bring the bones of this senior back to Ziyu Mountain and bury him together. To fulfill the Master's wish, I visited Xuannv Palace at night to steal bones. I didn't expect that a traitor would commit a large-scale crime and blame me for the crime."
Seeing Xiao Yunfan's words sounded so convincingly, Shui Hanyan believed it a little more. She sat down on the spot, looking at Xiao Yunfan with her beautiful eyes, and the flames reflected on her face became more beautiful.
Xiao Yunfan told the girl about her experiences in the past few days, like an old friend. After saying that, most of the tide in her heart was dissipated. Shui Hanyan listened to his sincere words, and his hostility towards Xiao Yunfan was no longer as strong as before. Suddenly she said, "Why did you tell me these?"
Xiao Yunfan smiled and said, "One of the time, the girl has saved me, so Xiao dare not deceive me; secondly, I am poisoned and I know that I have not had much time. After the girl knows that I have encountered this time, she can verify it as much as possible. As a result, she will get rid of the crime. When I arrive at the King of Hell, I will not be a dead ghost!"
Shui Hanyan smiled and said, "You are so sincere." Thinking of the fight with the sisters of the Xuannv Palace that day and did not kill him, this person may have been wronged.
